Breathe in the Air by Pink Floyd
By Kyle Myers

Breathe, breathe in the air.
Don't be afraid to care.
Leave but don't leave me.
Look around and choose your own ground.

Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.

Run, rabbit
run.
Dig that hole, forget the
sun,
And when at last the work is
done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one.

For long you live and
high you
fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave.
